Top posting. I suggest having a look at the getting started guide in the wiki: http://ext.openoffice.org.nz
In brief: Macros can be stored in a document (when creating the macro, specify a library within a currently open document) or in libraries that are OpenOffice.org wide. These libraries can be for individual use or shared. For the location of these libraries see Tools > Options > OpenOffice.org > Paths > BASIC. Libraries can be copied by: Tools > Macros > Macro... Organizer... Libraries tab > Append... Navigate to the document or folder for the library In the case of the folder for an OpenOffice.org library you select either of .xlb files (it doesn't matter which) Click Open Select desired libraries > Ok I have not tried setting a BASIC path to removable media, and tried starting OpenOffice.org with the media missing (which would be possible/likely?) with storing them on a USB drive. If you do try this I would be interested in the result. Hope this helps, thanks Ian On Thu, 2005-05-26 at 05:51, Herbert Eppel wrote: > On 25.05.2005 18:19 UK Time, G.
